5 Testimonials from visitors A unique opportunity to see all of the suppliers and products in a single place allowing you to make direct comparisons of demonstrations. HR IT consultant, St Christophers Hospice It was fantastic to see a wide range of providers in one place. When researching products and services, the marketplace can seem crowded and hard to navigate. The event enabled me to discover new vendors and discuss my requirements face to face in a greater level of detail. Director, The Skills Trust A great compact show with a friendly atmosphere and great selection of exhibitors. Very worthwhile time spent researching new systems and technologies to keep abreast of forthcoming developments alongside our more immediate software requirements. HR & Training Advisor, Cotswold Outdoor Very informative, all big names were there and the fact we could see demos of the software was very useful.
